i OUR CITY. The following paragraph, from the Montreal Transcript describes a state of things which applies, with equal truth, to our own town Of late years, Montreal has been renewing her youth like the Eagle. The older she grows, the younger she looks ased buildinffs every where srive place to juvenile ones the daughter1, as becomes the "marcu 01 liiieiiecr," ueing in every instance more beautiful than the mother, i Fire has been a great purifier and beau-tifier among us.

The Bank of the State of Georgia has declared, in addition to its usual dividend of Fouk.

dollars for six months (equal to 8 per cent, per annum) a Bonus of Six dollars per share. A sign from Illinois. We learn, says the National Intelligencer, that at a special election for State Senator in the Galena district of Illinois, Col. Wright, the Whig candidate, was elected bv a handsome ma- ority. The Republican states that "the election was contested inch by inch, and every means resorted to to Col.

Vv. In the Galena precinct, where the Whigs calculated upon a majority of one hundred against them, they obtained a majority of twelve. lhere are tour counties in this district, and the agregate majority for Col. is about two hundred. The Van Bu- ren candidate was a furious partisan, and received the support of the Government pensioners en masse.

Uol. Wright it will be recollected, nominated unon the White and Harrison ticket as one of the Presidential electors: and his present tri umph is but a forerunner of that which is to come, should the people do their duty. His election, it is said, if it does not give the Opposition a majority in the State Senate, will certainly produce a tie in that GEORGIA. A letter from a promi nent Van Burenite in Macon, Geo, to his friend this City, says" I am forced to confess that White will, unquestionably, receive the Electoral vote of Georgia." PENNSYL VAN I A The Democratic Republican Central Committee of Pennsylvania, have issued from Harrisburg a most cheering and animating call to the Whigs of that State. They shew that the majority against them in the late local elections amounted to than eight thousand, and that this majority can be easily overcome, when the contest is divested of the incumbrances which prevented a full expression, and Harrison and Van Buren are singly in the field.

But hear their own words; The late elections in thi State for Members of Congress and the State Le-gislalure, furnish no caue of despondency to the friends of Harrison in Pennsylva nia. The contest was solely in reference to State politics and State policy, and NOT between the friends of Harrison and Van Bu re n. It is true at the friend 3 of the State Administration wil I vote for Harrison, but it is also true that thousands of its opponents will also vote for the Hero of Tippecanoe, Several of the Committee who authorized this Address, voted, at iale election against the Anti-Masonic Ticket. Besides, the failure of the State Administration Ticket was owing to the smaliness of the vote in the counties where its great strength in consequence of the busy season of the year, the dissatisfaction in reference to the over-Legislation of last winter, the extra session, the School Law, and Poll Taxwhile the vote in the towns was large. There were FORTY THOUSAND votes less polled than last year, and of these forty lhousand, more than two-thirds are friendly to the election of Gen.

Harrison. 5 The conclusion of this Address is in a spirit worthy of the cause in which they 'hare embarked. 44 Who cannot afford to give one day in a year to save the liberties of the country Let it not be said by your children, when they read the history of this contest, that you were ungrateful that you forgot the toils and hardships endured by a. miglit onjov prosperity and peace that tou remained inactive, when the jackalls of party robbed the graves of honors won bv the illustrious dead, and preyed upon reputation won in the battle fields of our country. Let it not be said that while you forgot him, to whom you owed so much you rewardetl another, to whom you owed nothing, with the first office within your gift.

In the name of that abused country, which Van Buren has dishonoured, and for which Harrison lias exposed his life in the name of" that liberty secured to us by the Washingtons, the Hancocks, the Jeftersons, and the Harrisons of the Revolution in the name of the Constitution, bleeding at every pore, from the suicidal stabs of its pretended friends, let ONE MORE STRUGGLE BE MADE FOR FREEDOM, AND VICTORY."

WILL OF THE LATE COL. BURR. Below will be found the will. of the late Col. Aaro-k-Buuu, will doubtless be perused with interest by most of our readers.

We understand that the first volume of Burr1 9 Memoirs by Mr. Da-yis is in the the Messrs. Harper for publication, and will probably-ap pear about the middle of November. -Some of the pages of the manuscript have been submitted to our perusal, and we do not hesitate to say that the work will do credit to the industry and intelligence of its author. From Mr.

Davis's long and intimate connexion with Col. Burr and the political parties of the day, he is admirably well calculated for the task he has undertaken, and we are satisfied that he will conscientiously discharge the duty imposed upon him without being influenced by fear for the living, or affection for the dead.

FOK PRESIDENT, HUGH L. WHliE. FOR VICE-PRESIDENT? L.e!r. Ill Gil price of every article of provisbn in this is higher than we have ever before known tlem, with a prospect, we fear, of a still further rise. Flour sells by the load at 10 per bbl.

Pork commands already, S8 per hundred. New Corn readily brings 83 per bbl. -Lard 20 cents per lb. Butter 5 to 30 and other articles of Hvn in proportion. These are the ordinary rates when the Legislature assembles, we may calculate on an advance about 25 per cent.

Under such circumstances, the Proprietors of our Public houses, we presume, wil have to increase the jrice of Board. UICIDE. On Thui3day morning last Merril MiLLEK, who vas to have been hung the next day for tie murder of John Whitakeu, was found (in his cefl, in the Jail of this City, about in the agonies of death. MeJical assistance was promptly obtained, butto no purpose. It is not certainly known, In' what manner his death was produced; bit the belief is universal, that he died in consequence of some poisonous portion whichhe had taken.

The fiat of the nation Will have been recorded whether for weal or woe, time must determine. It is our firm conviction, that if the friends of Judge White turn out like men, North-Carolina will go a-gainst the Spoils' Candidate by TEN THOUSAND majority. Let nothing then but death, or the lingering bed of sickness, prevent every Whig from coming forward to the Polls, and acting ts becomes a citizen of this yet free Republic. 14 STAND UP TO THE RACK." At the Gubernatorial Election, in August last, the following counties gave a majority of votes for Dudley, the Whig Candidate, viz Anson, Buncombe, Bruns wick, Beaufort, Burke, Cabarrus, Columbus, Carteret, Chatham, Chowrfh, Camden, Davidson, Granville, Guilford, Hal Hyde, Iredell, Jones, Mont gomery, Urange, Pasquotank, Perquimons, Rowan, Rutherford, Stokes, Tyrrell, Wash ington ana Wilkes. Aye trust that the people of these counties will remember, that their having a decided majority in their own county renders it no less necessary that every man should go to the Polls Ipr the success or defeat of the whole Ticket for President depends upon the whole number ot votes taken in all the counties of the State.

OURSELVES. The approaching ses sion of the Legislature of this State will be one of the most important which has e-1 i1 1 1 ver assemDieu, anu wm probaDiy De as memorable for the length of its sitting as for the magnitude of the subjects which will come up tor deliberation. The people of North-Carolina must feel a deep interest in the proceedings of this body, and an account of them ought to be widely disseminated. The Editors of the Register respectfully offer this paper as a vehicle through which all necessary information can be obtained. They take pleasure iin stating that arrangements have been made, by which.

hereafter, much greater attention will be paid to the mechanical department of the Register. It has been a source of mor tification to the Editors, that there was just cause oF complaint on this SGore, but they have not had it in their power sooner to apply the proper remedy. The services of a competent' and trusty vvasmngton vorresponuent nave also been 1 1 'i sccureci, wnose regular aavices, we are connaent, win impart additional interest to our columns. To the people of North-Carolina, to whose interest this paper is devoted, the Editors look for a continuance of that lib eral patronage which has been extended to them during an unbroken period of near- INTERNAL IMPROVEMENT- mong the most interesting of the subjects that will occupy the attention of our an- proaching Legislature, will be the consid eration of, and action upon, a system of Internal Improvement for the State By the division of the Surplus Revenue, a fund will be placed at the disposal of the Legislature, which, if judiciously managed, will enable them greatly to enhance theJ value of the property of their constituents, by making the access to and from market, an object of trifling importance. Our means are too limited to follow closely in the giant strides of improvement taken by -some of our sister States; but we can make such a beginning, as will, when our resources become greater, assist materially in the application of those resources.

CONTINUATION OF THE RAIL ROAD.We learn from the Richmond Compiler that the Rail Road, between Richmond and Fredericksburg, is now in use to Downer's bridge, about 48 miles from Richmond, I eaving I ess than 1 6 il es of stage travelling to Fredericksburg. The trip from Richmond to Washington City is" now performed in 13 hours, and two li nes run regularly each way every day. The hours from Washington, are in the morning, at half past five, and in the evening upon the arrival of the afternoon train of cars from Baltimore. The hours from Richmond are in the morning, at half past one being upon the arrival of the Stages from the-South. 0 Cixcinnati Charleston Road three millions of dollars have been subscribed in South-Carolina: alone, to this great enterprize.

We have not yet heard the amount of Stock taken in this State. We learn from the Charleston papers, that the Subscription lists are now to be forwar ded to a Central Commission, composed of ruuc liauipiuil, uavia JU. OWUlH, JolHl Williams, Wm. Dicksoni and R. P.

What a change is now about to come over the secure dreaming of many, who aro opposed to all new plans of improvements, it would be in vain to delineate.

The people of the State of Ohio are characterized by a wonderful degree of enerav vet. in this excplle -they nearly, if not quite matched by their coaujuiors, me cioutn Carolinians. I am sorry, Messrs. Editors, to perceive tho people of our own State so enthusiastic in encouraging all Rail Roads which are to carry Produce out of the State, tho' I am for them, Tather than have nono at all for I think that the influence of example, will, after a while, cause us to have them from every desirable point or port in the Stale. Once, iNorth Carolina should have a Central Rail Road from Beaufort to the Mountains, and the degree of prosperity which will animate all her citizens would be astonishing.

Sampson-like, she has not yet been shorn of her locks, and she may yet bringdown ruin upon her deriders. And wo unto them when she shall arise in -the day of strength, when her noble Sea-port shall put or all her beauty. I am free to make the prophecy, Messrs. Editors, that North Carolina is yet to have within her borders, and on the seacoast, one of the first Cities in the United States; nor need this be considered as at all enthusiastic fnr it is in reality but the calm deductions of sober rea- -son. Beaufort is to be one of th vmta in XMorlh America, and although tho loni eloquent and much lamented Dr.

The boy now five or ten years old, may live to see a large city where stands mat lone and quiet nsning village. The people of this State have been long deaf to the remonstrances of all that could animate them to a gallant struggle for wealth gained by Commerce. After a few a-bortive efforts, the nervous spasms of an invalid state of the body politic, they sunk down into a state bordering on despair, and which, to use tbe language of Physicians, has brought on an almost fatal atrophy or marasmus.

HAYWOOD, DAVID OUTLAW, WM. A. WILLIAMS, THOMAS J. LEMAY. Internal Improvement Convention in Tennessee.

-A Convention for the purpose of deliberating on the subject of a general system ot Internal Improvement in the State, met at Nashville on the 10th ult. and continued in session four days. The result of the deliberations was the a-doption of Resolution, recommending tortile Legislature of the State to authorise the survey of a Rail Road 4Vom the Mississippi River to the Virginia line, through the centre of the State and to make an appropriation to complete the survey of so much of the Charleston and Cincinnati rail road, as is within the limits of Tennessee. The Convention also recommended that tfie portion of the Surplus Revenue coming to the State, be applied to purposes of Internal Improvement and in the event of any difficulty in making such investment, that the State effect a loan sufficient to construct the Road through the centre of the State. A Resolution was also adopted, requesting the Senators and Representatives in Congress from Tennessee, to urge the passage of a law providing for the distribution of the money, a-rising from the sale of Public Lands, amon the several States, in the ratio of their representation.
